The BAM MKE committee would like to invite members to participate in the second in our series of four virtual workshops designed to share and co-create best practice with respect to inclusive approaches to teaching and learning.
The first workshop brought members together to examine the different themes through which inclusivity can be explored and the challenges faced by academics and students in business and management schools.
The second workshop provides an opportunity for members to hear about specific practice and research within the sector, members will also be brought together around themes to further explore practice. The workshop will provide you with an opportunity for you to reflect on how your own practice could be developed into a scholarship project in this area potentially leading to publication or conference presentation.
Jennifier Teague will be giving a presentation on how virtual education abroad programmes are used at Purdue University to promote address issues of equal access to opportunities and Christina Schwadenland and Alexander Kofinas will giving a presentation on their research relating to staff anxieties about embedding equality, diversity and inclusion in Business Schools.
